Pros

Smart employees, very challenging work

Cons

Hard work does not always guarantee a promotion. Seems like the company is more concerned with developing the other countries employees and US employees are not given the same opportunities.

The company needs to get more stability in the job definition, there are too many changes and the people is not receiving a clear sense of direction.
